Support academic staff at Athabasca University

Dear activist,

Colleagues with the Athabasca University Faculty Association (AUFA) are presently negotiating a new collective agreement, and their employer is demanding major concessions.

The administration is proposing a two-year wage freeze, and an aggressive set of language concessions. These concessions include a proposal to allow the administration to compel sick or disabled faculty members to submit to non-therapeutic medical examinations by company doctors if faculty members take “too much” sick leave or the administration does not believe the faculty member’s own doctor.

Please show your support for AUFA by tweeting directly to the employer with the message that we stand with our colleagues.
#AthabascaU president @NeilFassina board chair @vivianmanasc withdraw your company-doctor proposal for @AUFacultyAssoc #education #solidarity #abpse
